Yes, that is it! Thank you very much.
I apologize for the way my emails show in this list. I haven't figured out how to avoid that.

Hello,
Say I have 3 servers
Srv1
Srv2
Srv2
Is it possible to configure an alert so that it will fire only when the
CPU test for all 3 servers has gone yellow or red?
In other words, I don?t want Xymon to alert when one server or two
servers are having problems. Only when all three are.
You can do this via a combo test defined in combo.cfg
https://urldefense.com/v3/__ https://xymon.sourceforge.io/xymon/help/manpages/man5/combo.cfg.5.html__;!!MfzFaTml5A!xy2swYGrL2SwmegjDWayreSrY9mVwJdXvsrNG2HmiYU_rDnifqX0LgUEwhlplPiz0OcwJQ$
i.e. you could define something like..
servers.cpu = (srv1.cpu + srv2.cpu + srv3.cpu) > 1
or perhaps...
servers.cpu = (srv1.cpu || srv2.cpu || srv3.cpu)
which would be green if one or more of the individual cpu tests were
green. You could then alert on "HOST=servers TEST=cpu" as normal.
